WPD regs say that climbers, trees and anything else must not enter the live zone, Less than 3m. If your tree is 10m away you will be fine as long as everything drops straight to the ground.

I found a pig trough which must have been hung up in a fork and forgotten about. I found it with our chainsaws four times. After sharpening four saws we split the trunk to reveal a perfectly preserved pig trough minus four chainsaw cuts

We sold some firewood to some gypsies, after we delevered it they went through the whole pile too check that there no elder in the pile. The bloke said that his father would not let any elder in the caravan, so they had to check.

Nice mess

this was mentioned in an other thread not so long ago, and the the most plausable reason was the long period of cold winds desicating the leaf tips causing the ends to go brown.

Whose's signature is 'wheres my chainsaw shorts and flip flops'. Your going to need a new one now

I bought a 1000 m roll of curtain cord for a fiver from a scrap store. Thicker than zing it, but it has a nice slick feel, and it can be wanged up a tree a fair distance. How about 'the tossers friend'

Coppicing (Bone question content!)
slack ma girdle replied to Pine Marten's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Seven years is not long to generate much firewood. In the good old days 5-7 years would have been for faggots. 15-20 years would have been for firewood -
Bastard shingles, good name. It should be the other other way around, cleving shingles is not an enjoyable task.
-
Are we talking about lots of roots or just one or two ?
-
Sorry to poo poo your fine work in windy conditions, but arn't shingles suposed to be cleft so that the wood fibers are left whole, so that the surface remains water proof ?

Check the rubber tube between the carb and the piston, it does have a propper name but i can not remember what it is called. It is also worth checking the tank breather valve. Other than that, scratch you head and sack (you decide which order) and hope somebody come up with a better answer.

If i remember correctley there is a good discription of in/out board cut in the NPTC guidelines for CS units 40 or 41, and when to use which.

Water shoots do have there uses for providing new structure to older trees. To reduce the amount of water shoots either split the tree into 1/4's and prune one quarter every year. Or split the pruning to winter and summer time. Large branches in winter and smaller branches in summer, but you do need to be aware of the possible problems with fire blight and other nasties with summer pruning. At the end of the day the harder you prune your fruit trees the more water shoots the tree will produce in return.

It is in the thousands. Most scrappies have a machine that will do the stripping for you. The last time i took copper to the scrappies i got £110. It aways pays to look in skips!

It is a different world.
